Palestinian soccer federation President Jibril Rajoub refused to shake hands with Israel FA Vice-President Basim Sheikh Suliman in a heated moment at the FIFA Congress on Thursday.
Both men were called to the stand by FIFA President Gianni Infantino, but Rajoub declined to stand next to Basim Sheikh Suliman, an Arab citizen of Israel who represents the Israeli soccer federation.
“I cannot shake the hand of someone the Israelis have brought to whitewash their fascism and genocide! We are suffering,” Jibril Rajoub said.
